Weather Station with Inversion Tower
OVERVIEW
INCYT’s weather station with inversion tower is designed to meet the guidelines of the World Meteorological Organisation and is an excellent choice for farmers, researchers and agronomists. It provides you with multiple points of measurement for accurate weather reporting to make key cropping decisions, including ambient temperature, inversion risk profile, Delta T, humidity, rainfall, wind speed and direction including wind gusts.
HOW IT WORKS
INCYT’s weather station with inversion tower utilises INCYT’s XR network, so you’re not restricted to only using this in areas where you’ve got a cellphone signal - as long as your setup is within reach of a INCYT base station, you’re able to use the weather station and inversion tower! The weather station with inversion tower gets paired up with INCYT blue nodes, giving you up to 8 (!) years of battery life!
The kit includes a Davis weather station, 2 additional temperature & humidity sensors, a 10 meter tower setup, and 2 blue nodes.
Weather and inversion data is available to you through the INCYT cockpit, which allows you to share this data with other users on your INCYT account as well. You are able to see ambient temperature, inversion risk profile, humidity, rainfall, dew point, Delta T and wind speed, direction including wind gusts. You will also have access to the hourly and long term forecast, based on VisualCrossing weather data.
Alarms can be set for measurements such as inversion, rainfall, temperature, relative humidity, wind and delta T - with both high and low configurations for a 24 hour, 7 day, 30 day or 365 day period. Alarms can be sent via email, text or in-app notifications to yourself or anyone else you choose to send this alarm to.
A variety of plans is available - the ‘Pro’ plan for example offers you sensor sampling every 5 minutes with data transmission every 15 minutes; higher or lower frequency data transmission plans can be selected at any time.

MAVERICK SPRAY ADVISORY
INCYT’s Maverick spray advisory utilises 3rd party weather data, data from your INCYT weather station and data from your INCYT 10 meter inversion tower. However if you don’t have an INCYT weather station or inversion tower, you can still use Maverick for it’s 7-day local spray risk forecast and other features - the data will just be based on the nearest publicly available weather station data instead of your own on-farm weather station. If you only have an INCYT weather station (no inversion tower), you can still use Maverick and access all local weather data, but you just won’t have the inversion component displayed to you. Maverick Spray You can activate Maverick Spray Advisory for only $2 per month! In the INCYT Dashboard simply go to ‘Applications’, select ‘add new application', find ‘Maverick Spray Advisory’ in the list, and you’ll be setup in no-time!
